Product Overview
2024 Topps Big League Baseball cards opt for fun over fancy hits. For the second year in a row, it arrives as an early-season release, taking over the slot once held by Opening Day, which was shelved in 2023.
A lower price tag than most products, Big League doesn’t have the guaranteed autographs, either. What it does have is lots of colorful inserts and a variety of chase levels from the common to the almost impossible.
Veterans, rookies and legends are all part of the 310-card base set. Sounds simple, right? Not exactly. Like last year, it’s a tiered affair. The first 200 cards are “common” and make up the basic shell set. Uncommon Rainbow Foil (#201-250), Rare Blue Foil (#251-275), Super Rare Red (#276-300) and Legendary Gold Foil (#301-310) make things more challenging.
All cards have Black Foil (/25) and FoilFractor (1/1) parallels. Common and Uncommon cards also have Electric Orange Foil cards that are exclusive to blaster value boxes. This is the only place to find Electric Orange Foil Autographs for select cards.
Topps has also inserted 10 redemption cards good for complete sets of Cracked Ice parallels.
Rookies are the theme of Opening Act Autographs, the most common signatures to pull in 2024 Topps Big League Baseball. These fall approximately every third hobby box.
Veterans appear in Big League Autographs, which are 1:136 hobby packs (almost 1:8 boxes).
Mascots, once a staple in Topps Opening Day, are in Big League this time around. These rank among the product’s most plentiful inserts.
